    Sorry, but the only welcome continental racial influence from a British perspective is Germanic, because they are less Meddish. Gallic/Celtic/French influence is the main source of ugly types (Med, Alpine, 'Atlantid') in NW Europe - the ugliest natives of the British Isles are IMO those that are heavily Celtic but lacking Germanic influence, and long isolated - i.e the South Welsh. Orlando Bloom & Emma Watson are not classically attractive unless you like brown eyes, which most don't. Olivia De Havilland was very meh, French looking (Joan Fontaine was better).

    As for the Orkney folk, obviously England (North) and Ireland best fit, but like many Scottish and Irish, fairly equally distant looking to continental NW Europeans.

    This is some of the most extreme Nordicist babble I have ever read on this forum (up against some stiff competition too). I didn't realise you felt this strongly about it.

    You're talking shit as usual. Nordicism is an ideology, I have stated a preference for characteristically Northern/NW European features (naturally), in contrast to Oliver stating that French/continental influence in Britain is a plus, and people without it are uglier.

    Your preference is ideological and subjective though.

    Can you show an example of a Balto-Corded?

    Codswallop. It is instinctual preference I've had since a child, not ideology, and of course a preference is subjective, that goes without saying. Posters on here (yourself included) regularly spout unrequested opinions about looks/attractiveness as though they're facts, but you have a problem with it when I say I like Northern looks better, or brown eyes are less attractive.

    I wouldnt call Atlantid "ugly" but very average/generic for europeans

    Search google for "young swedes" and you will find mainly robust blonde "baltids" with corded influences present in most cases.

    agree 100%, and the Keltic types certainly are ugly af but MED/MED-Alpine mixed females are very attractive

    Nordisch-Westisch or Westisch mit Nordische einschlag
    In other words: Atlantid type
